Conceptual framework of knowledge sharing and project team performance relationship in design and build project

Abstract

Increasing competition in construction requires improvement in human resources. An integrated project team that combines all project participants to work collaboratively requires a high level of coordination in working together and sharing knowledge to achieve goals. “Knowledge, it self-power,” means that in the economic era of the twenty-first century, we have moved into a world where knowledge sharing is power. Therefore, the competitiveness of the company is derived from knowledge sharing to increase team efficiency and effectiveness in achieving goals. In the other hand, soft skill refers to various necessary skills, knowledge, and values of life, conceptual thinking, communicating well, working well, influencing others, and getting along with others. A further innovation is influenced by factors that come from individuals, such as locus of control, tolerance, values, education, experience. Knowledge sharing, in addition to changing innovation, also influence performance. This paper aims to build a framework of the project team performance and knowledge sharing on design and build project, through literature study. A review of some literature has been carried out, and the conceptual framework of knowledge sharing and project team performance relation is developed through soft skill and innovation.
